Abstract
ABSTRACT A broadband low profile magneto-electric dipole (ME-dipole) antenna is proposed which can control the steering of the antenna beam in the elevation plane and azimuth plane. A reflective phase gradient metasurface (RPGMS) is designed to act as the partially reflecting surface of the antenna and provides two different phase shifts for it. By rotating and translating RPGMS around the center of the antenna can reshape the wavefront shape, realize beam steering with directions (, )= (±40°, 0°), (±30°, 0°), (±20°, 0°), (±20°, 90°). The results of full wave simulation are in good agreement with the measured results, the beam tilted range of ± 40° in E-plane and ± 20° in H-plane are obtained at 8 GHz. The bandwidth is between 42.5% and 48.4%, with a maximum gain of 6.29dBi.
